Feeling a little overwhelmed....
Today was the day we presented our demo lessons to the bosses of the company. We had to prepare any lesson that we wanted to and present for 15 min to the rest of the teachers and bosses. It was very nerve wracking because everyone was watching and I had never taught before. It was interesting seeing how everyone taught. Gave me some good ideas for when I teach. My presentation went well and I think people enjoyed it. After our presentations we got our tentative schedules for the next week. I am teaching 3 classes this coming weekend and I have no idea what to prepare for. It quickly became stressful because everyone had so much to prepare for all at once. We were supposed to be going to Qingdao this Thursday and Friday, our days off, but we decided that we better stay back here and prepare and have some down time before the busy weekend of teaching. We do have Monday and Tuesday off so we will try and go to Qingdao and the coast then. I am really hoping that works out because I really want to see this city. Today was the first day I really felt overwhelmed and completely lost and scared. I am really hoping that tomorrow and Friday provide me with time to prepare for the weekend of teaching. I will be teaching Elementary aged students. But right now, I am going to drink a beer, relax and hopefully get an early nights rest.
